3M SEMA 2011 Giveaway!

so many beautiful cars and trucks... and only a few that were truly swirl free perfection.

it chokes me to try and decide just 1 photograph that does justice, so i'm pitching a few "notable" photos before the final decision. Do a bit of google searching for more images of each.

1971 Ford Bronco "BIG OLY"
When dirty, this is a detailers nightmare; and when clean it's a detailers wet dream. A mixture of chromed and gold inodized suspension, this truck leaves nothing to hide. To clean this truck correctly would require it to be dismantled.




next
1946 Mercury "MS MERK"
There are paints that POP when the sun lights hits them, and the paint on this care shows everyone what that means. This was one of the swirl free cars I found while wondering around.
*had to include 3 photos to make the point*



As I type this, the list of notable cars keeps growing.
- 1958 Cadillac Convertible - Black and slammed at the Central Hall entrance


- 1958 Ford 4 Door Wagon - Light Blue and spotless. *drooled on the floor next to it*


- 1969 Camaro - Black and Blue and a mechanical wonder.


But of all the cars and trucks at the show, the following photo sums things up the best.

If you have ever been to SEMA, just walking down the Convention Center Drive will raise your pulse. In the distance are large inflatable tires, sprayers and logos from various vendors. You will hear a fine tuned motor revving in the distance that makes you want to walk faster. A supercar or two will pass you by as your feet begin to shuffle along the walk just a bit faster.

The anticipation of being at the show, the sounds, smells and sights of every car, truck, vendor, product, concept and sign will make you want to burst into a "Rick Flare" WOOOOOooooo!

You know it's real and you're there when you see this in person.

so setec_astronomy picked me to receive his prize, so here is what i won ty to nick and autogeek! i will post a review once i use it, need to modify my backing plate as its 1/2" too big for the pads(stock crappy bp that came with my polisher) seems like a good kit as you can apply it to the cheaper 6" orbital polishers. anyways heres the picture!

yes i know it says 2007, didn't set the date on my camera lol
 
Thank you Nick and Autogeek for picking me. I got the windshield repair kit.

One of those items that you hope you never have to use but glad to know that it is in the garage when you need it.

Thanks again.
 
I just had a visit from the UPS man. He delivered my 3M prize (Scratch Removal Kit) and my Dodo BOGO order. I really was interested in this and I'm glad I get a chance to try it out.

I've wanted to detail her car and opti-coat it for the past couple weeks but when the weather is nice it's been too windy. I hate not having a garage!

Likewise, 3M Leather & Vinyl Repair Kit. Now I've got to go mangle some leather or vinyl to try this stuff out. :D

Thanks!

lol TL could do what my dad did when we had a 95 grand prix gtp, forgot he had a pair of scissors in his back pocket(i have the same habit of leaving stuff in back pocket and forgetting it) sat down and put a nice hole in the seat, useful for accidents like that, proper leather/vinyl repair is expensive and fairly challenging to do, the 3m kit is basically just to make it not look so obvious so dont expect 100% perfection, works great for certain things however. good product for the average consumer :) and twister let me know how the scratch removal kit works. i've been interested in it as well.
 
Just got my 3m bucket and can't wait to use it. Thanks a bunch. It's real nice

So is somebody going to explain the bucket to me? Is the idea you put your wetsand water in one side and your paper in the other?
